CHOCOLATE CHIP KAHLUA® PECAN PIE
Kahlua®, pecan, and chocolate pie; that is the perfect autumn desert. The chocolate chips don't make it too sweet and add just the right texture to a pecan pie. The Kahlua® tastes better if you let the pie sit for a day or two. This is not just your typical pecan pie. You can substitute Kahlua®-flavored coffee syrup for the Kahlua® liqueur, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I have made these using dark rum, Grand Marnier and Bailey's Irish Cream, you can use any three with success.. I usually make these treats around the holiday season, but of coarse you can make them at any time.

- Let the Kahlúa age: Aging will improve the flavor of the Kahlúa. You can age it for a few weeks or even a few months. The longer you age it, the better it will taste.
